Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
For me, dentistry extends beyond the confines of individual teeth; it encompasses oral and systemic health, as well as the respectful relationships forged with my patients. Working closely with people to achieve mutual goals of oral and general health is what makes this career truly rewarding. Whether addressing issues of function or aesthetics, I am dedicated to ensuring that my patients maintain healthy teeth and gums.
Where Did You Study Dentistry?
My interest in dentistry was kindled by my father, Dr. James K. Kramer, instilling in me a sense of purpose that guided my educational journey. After graduating from Stephen Decatur High School in 2008, I pursued a major in Biology with a minor in Chemistry at Christopher Newport University, earning my degree in 2012. My educational path then led me to Temple University's Kornberg School of Dentistry, where I graduated in 2016, equipped with the knowledge and skills to start a fulfilling career in dentistry.
Staying at the forefront of dental advancements is crucial to my commitment to providing the best care possible. The ever-evolving landscape of dental technology allows me to refine my techniques, offering streamlined and efficient treatments. I actively pursue continuing education, keeping abreast of developments in implantology, orthodontics, and restorative dentistry to enhance my skills and provide optimal care to my patients.
Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?
I recently moved back to Selbyville from St. Augustine, Florida, where I served as a head dentist for seven years. In my downtime, you'll find me enjoying the outdoors—whether it's golfing, boating, surfing, or playing pickleball. I also love to be with my family, which includes my Belgian Malinois, Ace.
